20. 20 T RADE IN VALUE ADDED Start from a material balance equation Invert it to get the “inverse Leontieff matrix” (output requirements per unit of final demand) Define the share of value added in gross output in country r, call it V Combine with Leontieff matrices to get VA as a share of gross output And with gross exports to get VA as a share of gross exports

21. 21 B REAKING DOWN THE USES OF VALUE ADDED Foreign VA Domestic VA Absorbed domestically Exported As final good As intermediate For local absorption For export To third countries For re-export back home Multiple counting in trade stats Measuring trade flows in terms of gross exports generates multiple counting

22. 22 T HE VALUE CONTENT OF EXPORTS : A PUZZLE On aggregate, the domestic content of exports correlates negatively with GDP per capita A possible explanation: Aggregation bias
